Bittersweet 2

Life is bittersweet.

For it to be anything else would be false.
It isn't without pain and destruction..
It isn't without love and beauty..
Sometimes you find answers in solitude, sometimes it's a must.
Sometimes you find them with acts of charity.
To love isn't always something felt in your heart..
Sometimes it's through blood, sweat and tears..
Sometimes accomplishment is to realize you have gotten to the point you're standing.
Sometimes it's looking back and saying, "wow".
Happiness is strongest in the moment of knowing..
It's THIS very moment of accepting and feeling whatever it is that's this reality.
It's believing that there is more, if you embrace it..
Bittersweet it is to feel so much more than yourself..
And despite your limits..

 

You know you must keep the ripples alive.

Integrity

Live with mindful intentions & live with integrity...

Don't let the negative noise of the world take away your kindness. That inner peace takes nurturing.. And that inner glow will illuminate like a ripple spreads from a drop in the ocean.

Its definitely something that takes practice.. Saying a big F*** you to the world is the easiest route to take, and its the lowest.

Over a decade

Over a decade of knowing you.. Even after our many years of perseverance I can't help but think of you... Away for an hour or two I'm still left with a feeling of anticipation Its hard not to when every breath of me, lives You You'll always be my fierce and handsome funny man. You may be my obsession, but you'll never be my possession.. An occasion of jealousy, keeping me on my toes I wouldn't love you any other way. Its the only way I know how. All my heart, all my mind.. All consuming

Thankful

Thankful for all that has come and gone, this moment. Every stumble, every fall, the tears and laughter (especially the laughter) along the way. Alhamdulilah.
